It’s A Sign

Does something about this picture seem strange? Or maybe it’s just me. “Open For Business” – that makes sense to me. “Closed For Business” on the other hand…what? How can you be closed for business? If you are closed can you really be doing business too? It seems to me that it should say “Closed TO Business” if they really want to be accurate. Or maybe it’s just me…

On a semi-related note…I think it’s funny when I see a used car ad that says “Won’t Last!” or “Won’t Last Long!” or something to that effect. The fact that it isn’t going to last long doesn’t really seem like it would be a very good selling point. At least, if nothing else, they are being honest – you have to give them that.
